Howdy, Folks!
I thought I'd share my present situation with you on what's happening with CFMOTO and getting parts, and even entire engines.
I've been waiting exactly 30-Days for a new engine under warranty.
I just today, (08/13/21) talked to CFMOTO USA, and they have no engines in stock in the USA, and NO ETA on when they will see new motors. They are also running short on other parts as well.

The Reason:
Everything from the main ports in China that were shut down to shipping container shortages, to container ships waiting to be un-loaded due to slow downs at U.S. Ports, railways jammed up, and a lack of manpower as tens of thousands of U.S. jobs related to the issue go un-filled.
So, if you are waiting for parts, and/or warranty work, and you were told by your dealer that they are waiting on parts, they are telling you the truth.
 
I'm in business the boat/yacht repair for myself, and I too rely on engines, and parts from overseas, and I too am experiencing major slow downs, and there isn't a damn thing I can do about it. :-\

I'm hoping to have my new Zforce Trail 800 with only 21 miles on it back by October. I have a major, one month trip planned for the end of October, and into November.

I run a business that deals with a lot of different electronics that we get from China and supply chain issues and lead time are affecting all industry.  Hoping that we'll get some nice deals on new cars next Spring when the chip shortage starts getting worked out.  Acres and acres of cars and trucks sitting around waiting on one last part.

Yep! Investment opportunity!  ;D
The sudden shortage of semiconductors is disrupting automotive production
It’s created a stock market boon, however, for the makers of chip production equipment.

Those companies have emerged as the biggest winners from the supply crunch as chipmakers rush to add more factory capacity. Applied Materials Inc., the world’s biggest equipment maker, has seen its shares advance 36% this year, making it the best performer in a semiconductor index. Brooks Automation Inc., Lam Research Corp. and KLA Corp. are each up more than 19%,
